Many thanks to the people of Douglas for a wonderful Spring HPC Training weekend! It was a great time of year to be in south Georgia, and we enjoyed the great weather, historic homes tour and the fabulous reception at the Ashley-Slater House!
We were also lucky to have three new speakers, all of whom provided such interesting material! Below are links to our Speakers bios and contact information, copies of some of the presentations that were given so you can refresh what you learned.
Also, there is a link to join the Certified Local Government email listserv – open to anyone interested in discussing local preservation issues in Georgia.
